I am reading the fourth in a series of seven Maggie O'Dell mysteries about a FBI profiler, they are really good.

Read Century Rain, but not 'Pushing Ice' .
Preferred the Inhibitors Trilogy though - worth reading 'Chasm City' as well

Re: What are you reading?

Recently finishing (finally) watching "The Wire" has inspired me to go back & re-read David Simon's excellent non-fiction book "Homicide: A Year on the Killing Streets" (which the excellent TV series "Homicide: Life on the Street" was based upon, & which also partly inspired "The Wire").

Genesis in Space and Time, by Francis A. Schaeffer. And no, it's not a Dr Who novel.
